No Time or Money for Highlights? No Prob

L’Oreal Preference les Blondissimes, $8.99

Okay, ladies. I shouldn’t even need to say this, but great hair is non-negotiable. Doesn’t matter how or where you get it, it just needs to be fabulous. Always.

The problem for lots of us is the lack of time (and money!) to sit in a stylist’s chair and be coiffed. Being cut, blown-out, or deep-conditioned is time-consuming and expensive enough, never mind getting highlights or all-over color. Lucky for us blondies, there is a rockin’ product out there just for us. I grabbed it on a whim (my cheap self found a coupon sitting on the product shelf at the store) and I was thrilled. I figured it was just a one-time shot at bliss since my hair was so rooty, anything would have been an improvement. But when it came time to color again, I figured I’d give it another shot and then head to the stylist if absolutely necessary. It wasn’t! I was (and still am) hooked.

This stuff is priced well, smells good and colors great. Be sure to use the weekly conditioner that comes along with the color, and follow the directions and timing instructions to the T. If you do so, I think you’ll find this a great alternative (or at least an occasional supplement) to time in a stylist’s chair – leaving you more time to SHOP!
